AP/PP/Rolex are manufacturing such tremendous scarcity right now to the point of absurdity and alienating many genuine enthusiasts in the process. It will be very interesting to see how the strategy plays out if the global markets take the dive many pundits are predicting over the next 12-18 months.
That said, I REALLY want one.

Agreed. AP in particular has really gone down the 'boutique exclusive' or 'Geneva only' route. I can sort of see why in some ways but it does make it hard for many and locks you into buying your AP from the boutiques if you want a chance to get the harder pieces. I guess that is what they want and whilst the market is so buoyant its fine but when the market goes soft it will be interesting to see how that pans out.
And yes, I think everyone wants the 15202BC......
